Block calls to iphone

Does anyone know if you can actually block a number from calling/texting my iphone. I know there is a choice in "Settings" under "Phone", but it still allows the caller to leave a voice message or send a text, even though I don't get it.  I want a block that doesn't allow them to do anything.
Help?

True call blocking can only be done at the carrier level, not on the phone. What you see on the phone is what you get. If you really want a true block, contact your carrier and see if they offer call blocking. Normally there is a fee.

  • HT1688 Can I block calls with iPhone 5?

    Is there a way to block calls and messages to iPhone 5?

    There is nothing native to the iPhone 5 to block phone calls. Phone call blocking is generally handled at the carrier level. Check with your carrier and see if they provide blocking services.

  • Blocking calls on iPhone 5

    can individual numbers be blocked?

    Not in iOS 6. But you can make a contact for the number that you wish
    to block and assign it a silent ringtone. The call will still come in, but
    you will not hear it and it will go to voicemail.
    True call blocking is a carrier feature as Meg St._Clair stated. Contact
    yours as she suggested.

  • HT4515 Blocking calls on iPhone 5c

    I see that by touching the "i" listed after a phone number, I have a choice to "block this caller". Ok I've done this for a few calls (after looking the number up in reverse lookup)   But what if I want to SEE all the numbers I've blocked- how do I do this? I  wouldn't normally need this feature except I ported over my landline number, and you know what that means. But with two elderly mothers, I needed to keep the our phone number they've known for 30 yrs.

    To see all of the phone numbers you have blocked: Settings > Phone > Blocked

    How do I block a phone number calling my iPhone, so it only hears a busy tone?

    You cannot do this on the iPhone - this is a feature/service that must be provided by the carrier. Contact your carrier and ask if they can do this. In the US, for example, AT&T offers as part of the SmartLimits package.

  • HT1688 How can I block calls with my IPHONE

    Researching the internet shows that you have to jail break the IPHONE to be able to block phone numbers. Did the designers forget to design the application with the IPHONE? There has to be a way to block phone numbers without jail breaking the phone. Just about every cell phone out there has that ability, why not the IPHONE?

    FYI:
    No cell phone has the ability to block calls/sms's...none. True blocking must be done by the carrier, as there is no other way to block calls/sms's.

    How do I block calls and some messages--am a verizon user of iphone 4s

    You need to log onto your Verizon account (www.verizonwireless.com). One of the options on the main screen is blocking numbers. You can block up to, I believe, five for free. There are additional options that cost a monthly fee.

  • My iohone5 signals incoming call. Then, immediately Blocked Call is displayed! With no further information re caller.  I have just switched from iPhone 4 and never had experience with Blocked Call! Message . How can I at least find out who or what blocked

    MY iPhone 5 keeps blocking incoming phone calls with a message "call blocked" there is no addition information on who/what is being blocked or why. I have just transitioned from iPhone 4 to 5 and never had this happen before.  Does anyone else have this problem? How does one find out what/who is being blocked?

    If a user has blocked their caller ID there's nothing you can do but either answer the call or don't.
    This is NOT a problem, this is how blocked calling works.
